The reflection of the #windows of Como Conservatory in St Paul. #BlueSkyArtShow #EastCoastKin #flowers #photography

A still pool reflects glass conservatory with arched windows and a dome of windows. Floating on and reflecting off the water are some beautiful water lilies.

Mao and the Sparrows @maoandthesparrows.bsky.social · 7d

A beautiful crow perched on a bare autumn branch. Two yellow and green tattered leaves remain in the upper left corner and the bark is silvery under the crow’s delicate talons.

💫M33 : the Triangulum Galaxy

One of the most distant objects visible to the naked eye under very dark skies (~2.7 million ly away).

🔭Captured last summer with my 130/900 Newtonian and a Sony A7S / 24 hours total integration.

@kat-astro-bot.bsky.social what do you see ?

A detailed astrophotograph of the Triangulum Galaxy (M33), a spiral galaxy seen nearly face-on against a field of countless stars. Its bright yellow-white core fades into loosely wound spiral arms with blue star-forming regions and a distinct pink nebula, NGC 604, near the upper right of the core. The background is deep black, dotted with sharp points of starlight.

This bird has a personal spirit. I’d like a personal spirit. Probably a combination of colors in the blue spectrum.

It was a very miserable day, but it made my picture a bit more dramatic!
Lofoten, Norway

The image features a striking, yellow wooden house set against a dramatic mountainous backdrop under a cloudy sky. The house has white trim around the windows and roofline, providing a stark contrast to the golden yellow of the wood. It sits near a body of water, with a small dock and railing extending from its side. The mountains in the background are imposing and rugged, with their peaks disappearing into the ominous clouds. The overall mood of the photograph is somewhat somber, with the dark clouds and craggy landscape contrasting with the bright color of the house.

look at this doll eye I found!!! I'm obsessed!!

a beautifully made doll eye (a light, stormy blue; appears to be glass) still attached to a metal bridge, though the partnering eye is missing; a small metal weight is attached via metal wire to the base, giving the object the overall shape of a capital T

A bridge over a river is lit up light blue at night. Its reflection in the water below is dark blue with street lights reflecting orange and yellow.
